I had no camera, and so no record but that was something I will never forget. I took it home, kept it for a week - most of the time just looking at it and the whole locality coming to the room just to have a look at a COMPUTER. It was donated to a Church group by visiting American missionaries. My first encounter with a laptop was a big IBM portable that came with a tiny square screen (must be less than 6-inch - similar to the Osborne-1 from the article) that finally reached me to help fix. I was quickly known to be the kid that knows computers. During the early 90s, in between schools and classes, I helped out with the very few computers in the whole of our town. Growing up in the 90s in a remote corner of India, anything electronic was utter amazement for most of us.
